Step 2: Go to Galaxy S6 Camera settings

Step 3: Enable Galaxy S6 camera tracking AF (auto focus)

In the Galaxy S6 camera settings, you can find the Tracking AF as shown in the left.

Tap the switch to enable it.

Once it is enabled, the color of the switch will be changed to green.

If you cannot find the tracking AF option in the camera settings, very likely, the front camera is active. You need switch to rear camera.

In other words, Galaxy S6 camera tracking AF (auto focus) is for rear camera, not for front camera.

Please note, the setting for Galaxy S6 camera tracking AF (auto focus) is persistent. If you want to disable it, you must manually disable it through the same procedure. Rebooting the phone will not change this setting.

How to use Galaxy S6 camera tracking AF (auto focus)?

Once Galaxy S6 camera tracking AF (auto focus) is enabled, you can then use it in almost all Galaxy S6 camera modes.

In the preview window, tap the object on which you want to focus. Then tap shutter button to take photo or recording button to record the video.
